1st Corinthians, chapter 5, the entire chapter is what I'll read.

Paul writes,

it is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and immorality of such a kind as does not exist even among the Gentiles that someone has his father's wife.

And you have become arrogant and have not mourned instead in order that the

one who has done this deed might be removed from your midst. For I, on my part, though absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged him who has so committed this, as though I were present.

In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled and I with you in spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, I have decided to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh that his spirit may be saved in the

day of the Lord Jesus.

Your boasting is not good.

You do not know that a little leavens the whole lump of dough. Cleanse out the old

leaven, that you may be a new lump just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed.

Let us therefore celebrate the feast not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened

bread of sincerity and truth.

I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people. I did not at all mean with the immoral people of this world or with

the covetous and swindlers or with idolaters, for then you would have had to go out of the

world.

But actually, I wrote you not to associate with any so-called brother if he should be an immoral

person or covetous or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or a swindler, not even to eat with such a one.

For what have I to do with judging outsiders?

Do you not judge those who are within the church? But those who are outside

God judges, remove the wicked man from among yourselves.

If you're not a member of Bethlehem and you did not receive the mailing, you need to know that it's because of a case of adultery and ongoing impenitent immorality that we're preaching what we're preaching this morning

among our members and one of our missionaries.
